The choir founded by Nottingham actress Vicky McClure will be performing on home ground later this week. Our Dementia Choir will be on stage at Binks Yard, the city's newest entertainment and leisure spot.
They will be joined by X Factor star Sam Bailey on Friday June 2. The 25-strong choir, founded in Nottingham in 2018, perform up and down the country. It was put together by the actress after she witnessed the battles her own grandmother faced with dementia.
The choir was originally created as part of a documentary created for BBC 1, which saw Vicky explore music’s ability to combat some of the effects of dementia. Since then the choir has performed to an audience of 24,000 people at Splendour Festival, wowed crowds at the Theatre Royal and made numerous TV appearances including This Morning and Loose Women.
